This is why I shouldn't try to contribute before fully waking up.

Sorry for any confusion that may have resulted.

I saw "la'o zoi. Galileo Galilei zoi.", in which "zoi" is used correctly, as
the terminator. "la'o" and "zoi" are in the same selma'o' and it's not
uncommon to use "zoi" as the terminator.

The dates, though, I'd write the other way around, if they're all numbers.
Numbers connected with "pi'e" should be ordered most significant first, if one
is more significant than another; also this agrees with the ISO format. ISO
8601 was apparently issued shortly after the fork of Lojban, so I don't blame
Bob or John for not knowing about it; but it's now in common use on
international Web pages, including Wikipedia. The order is day-month-year when
the month is spelled out: le 8moi be le .ianvari be le 1642moi.

The veldetri should be given; the change from Julian to Gregorian started
during his lifetime. See https://jbo.wikipedia.org/wiki/latmo_veldetri .

"mivcitri" needs an interfix. I'd leave the apostrophes out of his name.

At first I thought you meant Galilee in Israel (the end of the subject line
didn't appear until I clicked on the message). :)
